This weekend, Walt Disney World debuted a new extra-charge tour for visitors to Disney's Animal Kingdom.

The Wild Africa Trek is a new three-hour-tour (insert Gilligan's Island joke here) that takes visitors into remote areas of the park's safari habitat, previously open only to Disney cast members. Disney's built a new series of rope bridges and observation decks to accommodate tour guests.

I heard that the two bridge crosses are quite the thrill, of course with netting underneath if you happen to mis-step with giant alligators below. All I'm hearing though is great reviews and would definitely like to try this out. I've never done any type of tour in the parks yet.
